compagne de combat

d’une palestinienne
qui lutte pour Jérusalem (53)
Chicana lesbians and gay men do not merely seek inclusion in the Chicano nation; we seek a nation strong enough to embrace a full range of racial diversities, human sexualities, and expressions of gender. We seek a culture that can allow for the natural expressions of our femaleness and maleness and our love without prejudice or punishment. In a queer Aztlán, there would be no freaks, no others to point one's finger at.
